Rule
94.6 – Climbing Space
A.
Climbing space above supply lines shall be maintained
in accordance with
Rule 54.7‑A to:
(1)
The bottom
of the Antenna (including associated support
elements)
if affixed less than eight inches from the surface of the pole at the top of
the pole or pole‑
top extension.
(2)
The top
of the pole or pole‑top extension
if the Antenna (including associated
support elements) is affixed more than
eight inches from
the surface of the pole or
pole‑top extension.
(3)
The bottom
of the uppermost Antenna (including associated
support elements) if multiple Antennas are present at
different
levels
above supply lines.
B.
Climbing space above communication lines
shall be maintained
in accordance with Rule 84.7
to:
(1) The bottom of the Antenna (including associated
support elements) at
the top of the pole or pole‑top extension when
affixed less than eight inches
from
the surface of the pole.
(2) The top of the pole or pole‑top
extension
if the Antenna (including
associated
support elements) is affixed
more than eight
inches
from the surface
of the pole or pole‑top extension.
C. Antennas and all
associated attachments shall
not impair climbing space or
interfere with fall restraint and
fall‑protection equipment
except as
permitted by
the application of Rule 54.7
or Rule 84.7.
Note: Examples
of attachments that might
not interfere with fall
restraint and fall‑protection equipment include,
but are not limited
to, the following:
(1) Surface‑mounted equipment that
occupies no more than 18 inches of vertical
space.
(2) Equipment stood off from the
pole to maintain a minimum
of 4 inches of clear space between
the equipment and the pole.
(3) Appropriately designed
and installed
